i had the great honour of living with her for 7yrs...how much i learnt from this humble icon n legend...may her soul eternally rest in peace...always loved and missed!
I met this Queen in Liberia, while she was exiled from South Africa, 1972,I was a child, my Dad approach her after the concert and she bowed to him , he was also exiled from the homeland , she hadn't seen one of her countrymen for years xxx
I met her in Canada after her performance. I was 19 years old and had crashed the green room hoping to take some photos for my University project. She was the kindest lady I ever met. I was the first person she approached and went on to tell me how she had met my late president Allende and how she was good friends with his widow, and with Graca Machel. She spoke to me like I was someone she had waited her life to meet. I have no idea how she knew my nationality and everyone just assumed that I knew her. For years I told myself that she just got me mixed up with someone else that was supposed to meet her. Now I know how special she was.
